Systemd, which started in CentOS 7, uses journal logs, which are managed differently from syslog in the past and can be maintained through administrative tools.

Use df -h to check the disk file. You can see that there is a log directory/run/log/journal under the/run directory, which takes up several G space.

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on/dev/mapper/centos-root 8.5G 4.2G 4.4G 49% /tmpfs 16G 1.6G 15G 11% /run

There are many historical accumulated logs in the log directory.

Check the current journal disk usage

journalctl --disk-usage

Cleaning methods can be used to clean up by date or by allowed capacity

journalctl --vacuum-time=2djournalctl --vacuum-size=500M

If you want to delete log files manually, you need to rotate journal logs once before deleting them

systemctl kill --kill-who=main --signal=SIGUSR2 systemd-journald.service

To enable log restriction persistence configuration, modify/etc/systemd/journald.conf

SystemMaxUse=16MForwardToSyslog=no

then restart

systemctl restart systemd-journald.service

Check whether journal is running properly and whether the log file is intact and uncorrupted
